Vehicles cluttered North Street, finding a parking spot had become an almost impossible task for those who were tardy at arriving at the Seaforth Harmony Kings concert- “The Best Worst Musical Ever.”
A few brief moments throughout the night, the sound of rain showered the town. From the inside of Seaforth Public School, besides a microphone this concert required no electronic amplification, just 34-35 men equipped with voice boxes that could be heard through the school walls.
In the gymnasium, hundreds upon hundreds of people enjoyed the show with the first half of the concert featuring an amalgamation of compositions from a wide range of musicals including the Wizard of Oz, the Phantom of the Opera, Music Man as well as numerous others.
The second half saw the Seaforth Harmony Kings’ barbershop quartet, the HEET, with a special guest appearance by the quartet Chordiology. Hailing from the U.S. state of Michigan, the group is celebrating their 27th year together. They’ve competed in the Pioneer District Barbershop Quartet competition since the late 90s and they were rewarded with a win in 2007.
